The Land of the Free

"Life has a certain flavor for those who have fought and risked all that the sheltered and protected can never experience." John Stuart Mill

The last time I was on an airplane, several men and women in military uniform came on board. A woman seated near me touched the first person on the arm and said, "Thank you for your service." He replied, "Oh no, ma'am, thank you. It's an honor."

Veterans Day is November 11.
